I forgot to write down what I’m trying to learn

I’m writing for about 5 years now. I’ve spent numerous hours writing about coding, architecture and management. Some people liked it although my blog is yet another stream of words in a big pile of information called “the internet”.

The amazing fact is that my top post (by far, I’m talking about ~90% of my traffic) is about Visual Studio .Net 2005 Colors!
Yes, a single post, out of hundreds, about a niche topic, got all the spotlight. Frickin’ Lovely.

So like most startups, I’ve build->didn’t measure->didn’t learn->WTF? FAILED!

This year I’m trying to drive my effort by aiming for learning first (learn –> measure –> build): starting from what I want to test (my hypothesis) then to see if/how I can actually measure it and then to build it, or write about it. I’ll share my journey as I go, hoping you’ll find it interesting.

Happy 2011 everyone!

  1. Yep… my blog get the most traffic for "Ostrich" in Google image search :) // http://blog.karmona.com/index.php/2007/09/21/the-blind-ostrich/ (My Ostrich post)

    But as opposed to you, I have decided to go for it an added more images and few facts about Ostriches that you always wanted to know but were afraid to ask.

    Next step is to sell Ostrich merchandise from my Software/Management blog… so my two cents for you my friend is stop fighting – Start to think about the opportunities in .Net colors – This market could be huge…
